The consequence of the flirting was that the alarm clock rang twice at six o'clock the next morning, and Chen Anxiu failed to get up, and finally Zhang Shinian helped him press the alarm clock and get up to cook for tons, his skills are average, but frying an egg, baking a toast slice, and a hot cup of milk are still not a problem. Ton Ton is not a picky eater, and after eating, he went into the house to see his father and Mao Mao, who rarely didn't wake up, and went to school by himself.
After the transfer of the newly bought shop under the mountain, other procedures were also done quickly, and the remaining decoration problems, after Chen Anxiu talked to Liu Guang's cousin, he was handed over to be responsible, the design drawings and the engineering team were all out of their side, Sun Xiao was left at the bottom of the mountain by Chen Anxiu to help, he himself thought it was too troublesome to run on both sides every day, so he simply hugged the futon and lived in the store, he is now more and more stable, and Chen Anxiu is also relieved to hand things over to him. But after all, they are the main family, Chen Anxiu and Chen's father still go down every now and then to see the progress and construction quality, but in general, with Sun Xiao, they have to worry a lot, and they can also free up their hands to do other things.
In the busy, this year is also coming to an end, in mid-December, the solar term of heavy snow has passed, but Green Island has not really had a heavy snowfall, in the growing army of colds, Jiang San's grandfather, who has always been quite tough, was also unfortunately hit, Chen Anxiu accompanied him to the health room to hang the hanging bottle for two days, but Grandma Chen, who eats and drinks well every day, does not go out much, and has maintained a very stable condition since the fight came back.
She sat with Chen's mother and didn't talk much, but other old sisters in the village would sometimes come to see her and chat with her, especially after Binbin moved in, she looked even happier and often took Binbin to her house to talk.
For the things that he unintentionally bumped into that day, he was quickly left behind by Chen Anxiu, it was grandma's money, what she was willing to do, no one could make the decision for her.
Thanks to the re-election in the village, everyone is busy canvassing votes, in the usual relatively deserted winter, Chen Anxiu's small restaurant is very lively this year, not only Chenjia Village, even the neighboring villages in the town often come to him to eat and drink, and every time he shoots is very generous, a table down but a thousand are embarrassed to say that they are here to entertain, and the sales of cigarettes are also rising every day, often one is two or three, and everyone on the table sends two boxes. If you invite the leaders of the town, the table will be larger.
The good things that are delivered to the door, of course, Chen Anxiu will not push them out, and the services are also more and more thoughtful and meticulous, such as giving them a bag when they take cigarettes, and the ones that cannot be sent can also be stored here, and for example, if two candidates from the same village come on the same day, arrange for them to be in the north and south to avoid encountering them head-on, and instruct the people below to be strict-mouthed, don't say anything you see everywhere or something.
The more people come, the more requests there are, and many people come in in the winter and want to order a hot pot. There are hot pots in Chen Anxiu's shop, but they are all very small, single, two, the largest can be eaten by four people, there were few customers in winter before, most of them were people from the town to eat, and it was enough to have these hot pots. Now there are more than a dozen big men sitting at a time, and one person is not bored eating in a small hot pot. Chen Anxiu also thought that the restaurant had been open for so many years, and it was also to add something special, so he went to the next town to order some tables with big iron pots, lit the stove below, and sat around the stove at a table, and boiled two big fat geese in the iron pot in the middle, boiled a few big grass carp, stewed a pot of mutton, and then pasted a circle of cakes on the edge of the potγ
Sun Xiao was not there, Chen Anxiu made these things, Binbin was busy for several days, after this thing stopped, Binbin had nothing to do, so he offered to help in the small restaurant, Chen Anxiu did not agree, although the situation of the sister-in-law's family is not very good, but because Binbin is young, he has never worked outside, he came to his uncle's house to live for a few days, and let him serve dishes and bowls in the restaurant. If Bin Bin was looking for a job here, of course, it would be another story, but now it is obviously not.
"Why don't you go and learn to drive, I see the place where the town gets a car school, there are very few people recently, it's in the big yard next to the Agricultural Bank, and it's very close to come here to eat at noon. He took Binbin out in the past two days, and Binbin said several times that he wanted to try, as if he had learned a little from others before, but he had never opened it alone.
Chen's father also thought that the idea was good, and he was also moved to see Binbin, so he made a decision, "Then go to learn to drive, how can young people not know how to drive now, it happens to be cold now, there are few people learning to drive, and the registration test is not crowded, I will give you the money first, and take you to talk to the coach in the afternoon, the coach and I are very familiar with it, and often come here to drink tea, you can call him Uncle Sun, they are all people who know each other, how much can he take care of, if it is fast, he can take off the driver's license in two or three months." β
Seeing that the second uncle and second brother said this, Binbin was also very willing, and said that he would let his mother bring money next time.
There are indeed very few people who learn to drive in winter, Binbin this batch of seven people, sharing a car, the driving school in the town opens at nine o'clock in the morning every day, and stops at less than four o'clock in the afternoon, and it is the warm time to choose, Grandma Chen heard that Binbin is learning to drive, and is willing to follow over to see, Chen's father saw that she went out for a walk and was in good spirits, and did not stop her, but did not dare to let her stay outside for a long time.
Grandma Chen came out, and Chen's mother didn't have to stay at home, and from time to time, she would take Mao Mao to the town for a walk. Mao Mao is not a homely type, he was released, he was happier than his grandmother, jumping on the road, shouting when he saw someone he knew, and when he didn't know his grandmother, he also shouted, grandpa, grandma, uncle, sister, little sister, he was not afraid of people when he was young, and he was never timid to shout people after he could speak. In his eyes, no one doesn't like him, so of course, when he talks to others, people are also willing to talk to him.
Chen's mother took his hand and walked forward, talking to him, "Did that grandpa like you just now?"
"Like me. β
"Does this aunt like you?"
"Like me. β
In fact, Chen's mother also knows that no matter how many questions you ask, the answer is yes, the whole world likes him, even a tree that he just passed by today, the head of the team who was deliberately stepped on by him yesterday, and An An, who was made to cry by him the day before yesterday, likes him very much.
For his inexplicable self-confidence, the whole family doesn't want to hit him, he is still too young, more than two years old, and what he feels is full of kindness is always a good thing that needs to be maintained, but he is not always good, he does not learn and has no skills, the town is like such a big child, some can memorize the three-character scripture, some can memorize a few Tang poems, and there are more good family conditions, and they are sent to bilingual training classes to learn English. He was good, his grandmother spent three days teaching him to climb the stork's tower on his back, and he spent two days learning to live in the mountains during the day, sleep at night, and forget it when he woke up. The only thing that can be carried is goose goose goose goose, singing together.
He has the best memory of the things he plays, he can almost call out the names of the children in the town, and he also knows where people live, as soon as he arrives in the town, he hasn't seen anyone, just passing by the door of people's homes, he starts shouting, "Doudou." "Flat. Some of the names, he didn't know how to say, so he ran to the door of the house and shouted "ah". Chen's mother sometimes wouldn't let him go, but he didn't want to. It's also weird, basically he shouts, as long as those children are at home, they run out, even if he is just a light, people know that it is him, and he runs out shouting, and the parents chase after him with their hats, so from time to time someone laughs and says, "Every time Mao Mao comes out, half the people on the street know." β
When I first arrived in the town, Chen's mother led one in her hand, and when she entered the door of the building materials store, Chen's mother dragged a string in her hand, plus the parents who followed behind. Chen's mother led her to the inner room to talk again. Grandma Chengxuan from the curtain shop next door also led Chengxuan to play, the children came together to play, the adults also talked around the stove, and Chen's father temporarily went to the street to weigh two catties of melon seeds, and brought a thermos and cups to let them drink water.
Aunt Liu from the curtain shop next door said that Lin Meizi came to his store yesterday and asked for two cotton door curtains, "I thought I would live at home for a few days, how do I look at this posture and want to live permanently, if you want to say how big the Wei family's yard is, she married her daughter-in-law, gave birth to a child and has a lot of rooms, how can you let Meizi go back to the village to live, the old house has not been inhabited for a few years, and Lin Shufang cleaned up last year, and she didn't really go to live." β
Someone else said, "Then Liu Yinghong really did it, even if this sister-in-law is not a relative, she has been in the Wei family for all these years, and her new daughter-in-law has kicked people out." But Mei Zike still has a child, and Wen Yin is not yet two years old. But this Meizi isn't going to get a divorce, right? It's been almost a month since she came back, why haven't you seen her partner come to pick her up? If her father-in-law hadn't fallen, do you think Liu Yinghong still has this attitude? It's also that Meizi is working quite well now, if she doesn't have this job, Liu Yinghong probably won't let the door in. β
Chen Anxiu has good ears, although they deliberately lowered their voices through the door curtain, he still heard two sentences, he knew that Meizi was back, but he didn't pay too much attention to it, and he forgot about it when he was busy, he went out to call Lin Meizi, and the other party didn't say it too clearly, only said that there was a little conflict with Jiang Xuan, and he wanted to clean up when he went back to the town, so Chen Anxiu didn't ask deeply. He was a little awkward in his position, and it was not appropriate to say anything.
After Chen Anxiu's big stew pot was opened, the demand for coal also increased greatly, Chen Anxiu specially greeted the coal yard in the town, let him help to buy some good coal, usually the coal burned at home, seven or eight cents a pound is good, he wants more than a piece, burn-resistant, smoke is also very little, usually no one in the town is willing to use, need to be special, the coal yard will be transported to the mountain, after the coal comes, he goes to see the quality, by the way also wants to buy some more for the family, this year the weather is cold, grandma lives in their house again, the time does not dare to cool the house, the family originally bought the coal to the ground quickly, it seems that it will not last until the end of the yearγ
He met Lin Meizi in the coal yard, the other party was also buying coal, she wanted less, and the coal yard was unwilling to drive to deliver the goods, so she asked her to get a tricycle to pull it back.
Chen Anxiu told the boss that this was his classmate, and when the boss sent it to his house, he took a trip to unload it for her, all of which were from Chenjia Village, very close.
For the old customers, the boss of the coal yard did not even give this little face, so he happily agreed. Chen Anxiu first took someone to Lin Meizi's house to unload the coal, and helped her move to the coal shed, he didn't come here for some years, this old house is not only extraordinarily dilapidated, but it is similar to remember, with its back to the street, four rooms to the north, Meizi used to live in the easternmost room, sometimes he wants to call people, and he doesn't want Aunt Meizi to know when they know, he knocks on the small window behind with a small pebble on the street, Meizi hears the movement and stands on the bed and opens the window and asks in a whisper, what is the matter?
Take the English homework, I copy it.
Why don't you write it yourself?
Isn't it faster to copy the land? Hurry up, I'll make an appointment with someone to play ball in the afternoon.
Sometimes when it is a little longer, Lin Shufang will ask in the house, Meizi, who are you talking to?
Meizi said, Auntie, no one, I memorize words. Then the homework book would be thrown out of the window, and again, "One last time, you're lazy."
"Still living in the East Side House?"
"Yes, get used to it, come in and I'll give it to you...... Pour some hot water and wash your hands. β
"No need to wash, go back and unload, you go back to the house, let's go first." β
Lin Meizi didn't keep much, sent them out, when she turned around to collect some coal stove, she found that the coal in the coal shed was three more bags than she bought, he bought eight hundred catties of coal, weighed and packed in the coal yard, a total of seven bags, now there are ten bags neatly placed inside, the people in the coal yard will definitely not unload more for her, I want to know who it will be.
Lin Shufang heard that Chen Anxiu helped pull the coal back, so she moved her mind, her family wanted a house, and she wanted to be cheap, and after Chen's mother and the premise were too many times, Chen's mother was a little annoyed with her, at first she deliberately found a topic to diverge, and then simply said that she wanted to keep it for herself. Lin Shufang knew that she was a pretext, Chen Anxiu had just built such a big house in the town, who didn't know, where would she need to buy a house to live in, but in the past two years, her money was really tight, and she couldn't pay the lowest price, so she had to be cheeky to bargain.
"Meizi, I really can't help it, Yinghong is messing with me at home every day, Xiaolei is also willing to buy, when they got married, they said they wanted to go to the city to buy a house, our family had no money, so I didn't buy it for them, this time they said they paid 250,000 yuan, how can I talk to your uncle about not buying, I am also in my fifties, am I willing to go out and beg someone? Xiaolei and Tianyu said, Tianyu didn't say anything, so he said that his parents were in charge of the family's affairs, and now only An Xiu was left, you help Xiao Lei to ask An Xiu, if you feel that it is inconvenient for you to speak, I will go with you, and you will beat the side drum?" She saw that An Xiu and Meizi had been in a dull relationship in the past few years, and thought that the two sides had a feud, and now look at An Xiu still has a little affection for Meizi.
Lin Meizi couldn't refuse at all.
Lin Shufang came on the night of the village reelection, and Wei Xiaolei and Lin Meizi came with her, when the meeting was held in the village in the morning, Lin Shufang said to Chen Anxiu that she wanted to go to him with Xiaolei in the evening, and Chen Anxiu understood a little, but she didn't expect Lin Meizi to come together. He let people in.
Zhang Shinian was also there, he sat there without saying a word, and he would not let people ignore his existence, in front of Zhang Shinian, Lin Shufang didn't talk about the topic for a long time, Chen Anxiu had to open his mouth and drive the person to the bedroom.
Lin Meizi noticed that Zhang Shinian got up, and when she and An Xiu staggered, she pinched An Xiu's waist hard.
As soon as Zhang Shinian left, Lin Shufang happily explained her intentions, and also said that the difficulties at home, compassion, Chen Anxiu has, when he does not have a hobby to spread anytime and anywhere, "I promised Sun Xiao the house that I promised earlier, and I can't make decisions for him." β
Wei Xiaolei saw that he also shirked, so he said, "Brother Chen, don't worry, when the time comes, the house payment will not be less than you, Brother Chen, you may also know that the money we released this year has also made a lot of money, and to tell you nothing, Liu Xue has secretly revealed to us in private that next year will only be better, many big companies have borrowed money from them, and the community where my sister lives now is two more roads away, isn't there a big piece of land by the sea? The big construction company that bought that piece of land also borrowed their money. 166 Reading Network
